    Front-paging this post is an excellent way to turn people away from your blog. Ms. Day's post shows that she is ignorant and that she uses flawed reasoning to push her agenda on other people's children.

    Does she really believe that droves of parents are pulling their children from public schools because they disagree with the Core Democratic Values? Her "socialism argument" leaves out the fact that the values are from the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, the Gettysburg Address and other foundational documents of the United States. Those are not socialist documents.

    She also claims that Everyday Mathematics is terrible. Her proof is a YouTube video. She also dislikes the "coloring pages" used to teach designs and tessellations to elementary aged students. (quote from her personal blog). This shows that she does not understand how to teach geometry and algebra concepts to young children.

    Further, her dislike of Al Gore seems to ignore the fact that his movie is not a part of the State of Michigan Curriculum. It also seems highly suspect that a child was forced to watch the movie three times in one day.

    It is also false that public schools do not have competition. By her own admissionion, unhappy parents can "choose to put their kids in charter or private schools."  This (along with the Schools of Choice program) is competition.

    I have never posted before, but I have always enjoyed reading RightMichigan. This post, however, calls into question the validity of your front-page items.  

    It seems that too many Republicans forget that most of us are the product of the public school system.
